The Yearly Marmot

It's the one year anniversary of the Weekly Marmot (well, almost)! In an extra-long extended episode, I go over my history of gaming: how I got into gaming, what games I used to play, how I got into MMOs, and how I got involved with the World of Warcraft community. It's not exactly light viewing, so fix yourself some popcorn and settle in for the nerdiest story ever told.

And don't worry -- we'll be right back to the regular old information-filled Weekly Marmot next week, for the Patch 4.0 Survival Guide!

Well, that was an interesting thing to watch. You didn't talk about your wife, man - you should have.

And about this StarCraft stuff - I would like to help you out, as I adore the game. I am not sure how well and what I could do, but I definitely down. And if you are going for another video kind of thing, I could add another accent to TankSpot :P Shoot me an email, or talk to me on IRC, or whatever if you are interested.

I watched the entire video and I am glad that I did. It was interesting to hear your gaming history and how you got involved with WoW and Tankspot. I liked how you had a clan in Counterstrike with all rodent names like Mouse and Hamster, now you are doing something called the weekly Marmot.

Anyway, I would have liked to have heard more of World of Warcraft and your thoughts on the game in general. It would be interesting to for some of us that are newer to the game to hear how it has evolved over the years through Classic, Burning Crusade, Wrath of the Lich King, and now Cataclysm.

I don't know how many people would actually watch another hour long video, but I know I would.
